Miller's Quick Hits - 10 predictions for the upcoming season

[Miller]

No softballs here. Here are 10 things I feel you can take to the bank for the 2011 season. These are not your obvious predictions, the 10 things you may not see coming!

1. Philip Rivers will be the #1 QB in fantasy this year. Everyone likes him, but I am telling you he will end as #1. Great value. Bonus item, welcome back to the top 10 WR's Vincent Jackson!

2. Jared Cook will be a top 5 TE. This kid is for real and Hasselbeck is just good enough to get him the ball enough to be a big time TE.

3. Darren McFadden was no fluke, he will end the year as a top 3 RB.

4. Matthew Stafford stays healthy all season and finishes as a top 5 QB.

5. Mario Manningham will be a ppr monster and will catch 100 balls this season.

6. Reggie Bush has a new home and a new lease on his NFL life. In ppr leagues he will finish as a top 10 RB.

7. Cam Newton will be fantasy relevant this season if he can stay healthy (he may get killed as he runs for his life). If he plays at least 14 games, he will finish as a top 15 QB and possibly even higher. His rushing stats will be his saving grace.

8. Felix Jones will surprise many and finish the season as a top 10 RB. He will have a DMac type impact this season.

9. Kenny Britt may be a bonehead, but he will finally live up to some of his talent. Top 10 WR is not out of reach.

10. Jermaine Gresham will sneak into the top 10 TE. Dalton will need a safety value and Gresham will be just this.

I'm completely on board with 9 outta 10 of those predictions Miller... not so sure about #7 but we shall see!

Awesome work Miller.

I think you're spot on with a lot of this. Some of it is a bit stretchy, but we get the point.

 

[Cerberus]

Hopefully right about Stafford. That being said and done, Detroit should make the playoffs this year as a WC.

Good stuff Miller but Reggie will be limping on the sidelines by week 3.

 

[Miller]

That is the wildcard here with Reggie....can he actually stay healthy enough to put up the numbers that he is capable of......at one point no one thought Fred Taylor could ever play 16 games either, and he went on to quite those doubts later in his career.
